Sorry I didn't follow up earlier suggestions more quickly... I wanted to research things further before asking again....
To recap: I'm trying to install ICS on a Win98Se system, for use with Delphi2. I've done it before... but a while ago... so I MAY be help- able!... When I try to install even WSocket, my Delphi refuses, throwing up.... "Cannot assign to read only property" ... when it hits.... FLogFile.Size:=0 ... in ICSLogger. FLogFile is of type TFileStream, which is a Borland supplied descendant of TStream, with the "size" property read-only. I don't think the {+$J} directive is about getting around this sort of thing, is it? (I did try that route... from several directions... no luck. My guess: I wonder if ICSLogger is an extra feature, added since the last time I installed ICS (the time I was successful with D2/Win98!) And, still guessing, ICSLogger uses something D2 unfriendly. My hope: I'm wondering if it would be a huge task, or a wreck-the- basic-features-of WSocket / WSocketE / WSocketS / HttpProt to take ICSLogger OUT of those ICS components, and get around the can't- compile-with-D2 problem that way? I presume ICSLogger is something to log some information as packets travel back and forth? Can I live without it? I'm not looking for a promise that I have the skill to take it out... but if you know it would be a futile exercise which would make any of the components I mentioned Just Not Work, I'd be grateful to be saved the time.
